I'd be almost certain you will have to take the intake manifold off to access the hose to replace it. I would replace it with heater hose of the same dimension, not sure what that dimension is but it should be available at Napa or somewhere that they sell bulk hose, also insist on Oetiker clamps if ...

Installed a shift handle, leather E-brake handle and two good boots that I had sourced from the junkyard several months ago. Also put in a different radio (my volume knob didn't work and the radio head would change input sources and frequencies on its own occasionally. Its a slightly different colou...

You'll have to look under the arms wi...

I then disected the old radio, there is some corrosion on the circuit board at the volume knob area, don't know if there's volume chip but it certainly appears there is a circuit board problem that can perhaps be remedied ...

Seems like everyone is putting the winters on this week. Just put my Michelin X-ice's on yesterday and pulled the block heater cord through the grill for easy access and installed some Bosch ICON wipers. P80GLT; what vehicle are your 17 inch rims off of? And what type of winter road conditions exist...
